Patti Smith Group 
October 31, 1998 
Halloween Parade 
New York  City 

Recorded by Drifter666 
Lineage: d7->DAT-CDR->You  

Live from a moving truck (float) in the middle of the parade. Sounds  really 
good considering ! 

Background: I was at an all day/night wedding  where costumes where required 
and in the middle I got a phone call saying Patti  Smith and her band were 
going to play on a float in the Halloweeen Parade. I had  been a chimney sweep at 
the Wedding but ran home and got my toy horse nad became  Johnny from the 
Horses" song. My friends from Canada had never been to the  parade and made the 
trip from the wedding to the parade. We walked along with  the float. After the 
parade we returned to the wedding. My Canadian friends were  speechless.... 

For those of you outside New York City the Greenwich  Village Halloween 
Parade may be the largest of its tyupe in the world and goes  for about 23 blocks 
and is packed with thousands/millions of people going nuts  each year ! Lou 
Reed wrote the song called "Halloween Parade" on his New York  album about it !
